In this video of The Bible Project, we see how YaHUsha’s work and ministry culminated in a week of controversy leading up to the celebration of Passover.
We will explore the Gospel of Luke 19 – 23, and how it came about that the innocent YaHUsha ended up being executed as a revolutionary rebel against Rome.
We will also see how YaHUhsa was not at all surprised because He believed that His death would open up a new future for Israel, and for all humanity.
Did you know that Israel’s Tabernacle Tent was designed as a symbolic Garden of Eden? And did you know that Adam and Eve were proto-priests who lived and worked in the sacred space?
In this video, Bible Project explores Elohim’s plan for humanity to serve as Royal Priests over all creation and how the story of YaHUsha brings this priestly drama to its ultimate resolution.
In Scripture, the word “emet” is a common word used to describe YaHUaH Elohim.
Ex. 34:6 And YaHUaH passed by before him, and proclaimed, YaHUaH, YaHUaH Elohim, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth (“emet”) …
“Emet” can be translated as “faithfulness” or “truth.” So when the authors say that YaHUaH Elohim is “full of emet,” they are saying that He is Trustworthy and Faithful – we can trust Him.
But trusting isn’t always an easy thing. In this video, we look at why we can trust that YaHUaH Elohim is full of “emet”.
Following is a video of The Bible Project …
In the story of the Bible, YaHUaH is depicted as a generous host who provides for the needs of his guests. However, humans live from a mindset of scarcity and hoard YaHUaH’s many gifts. In this video, The Bible Project explores YaHUaH’s inexplicable generosity.

Watch this overview video by The Bible Project on the book of Jeremiah, which breaks down the literary design of the book and its flow of thought.
Jeremiah announces that Elohim will judge Israel’s sins with an exile to Babylon. And then, he lives through the horror of his predictions.
Jeremiah then also prophesied that YaHUaH will plant again and rebuild Scriptural Israel, Jer. 30 – 33.
In the opening pages of the Bible, Elohim gives humanity a gift that they quickly forfeit. It is the gift of Eternal Life that comes by eating from the Tree of Life.
In this video, The Bible Project explores the meaning of this powerful image and how sacred trees play a key role throughout the story of the Bible.
It all leads up to YaHUsha Himself, who died UPON A TREE so that He could become a “new” TREE OF LIFE for all Humanity (Adam’s offspring).
What did “love” mean in the O.T.? Deut. 6:4 – 5 is a command and YaHUsha quoted from it in Matt. 22:37 – 39.
Deut. 6:4 Hear, O Israel: YaHUaH our Elohim is one YaHUaH:
Deut. 6:5 And thou shall love YaHUaH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.
Mat 22:37 YaHUsha said unto him, you shall love YaHUaH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
Mat 22:39 And the second is like unto it, you shall love your neighbour as yourself.
Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
“To love” is “ahavah” in Hebrew and it comes from a root that means “to give”.
John 3:16 For Elohim so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Elohim is Love …
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of Elohim; and every one that loves is born of Elohim, and knows Elohim.
1 John 4:8 He that loves not knows not Elohim; for Elohim is love.
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of Elohim toward us, because that Elohim sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.
1 John 4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved Elohim, but that He loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
1 John 4:11 Beloved, if Elohim so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
1 John 4:12 No man has seen Elohim at any time. If we love one another, Elohim dwells in us, and his love is perfected in us.
1 John 4:13 Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of his Spirit.
1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
1 John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that YaHUsha is the Son of Elohim, Elohim dwells in him, and he in Elohim.
1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that Elohim has to us. Elohim is love; and he that dwells in love dwells in Elohim, and Elohim in him.
1 John 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as He is, so are we in this world.
1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.
1 John 4:19 We love Him, because He first loved us.
1 John 4:20 If a man say, I love Elohim, and hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love Elohim whom he hath not seen?
1 John 4:21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loves Elohim love his brother also.
In the Bible, the word “witness” is used to describe both a person and an action – someone who sees something and then talks about what they’ve seen.
Similar to today, this word is used in both legal settings and to describe an experience with Elohim. But what’s most interesting about the word witness is how it illuminates the story of Scripture, especially the role of the people of Elohim.
The word “witness” makes us think of someone testifying in a courtroom. Or maybe you think of someone sharing their religious testimony or persuading others about their faith.
These ideas are similar to what we find in the biblical text, but the word and theme of witness also tell a much bigger story. In the Bible, a witness is someone who sees something amazing or important and then shares it with others (Ruth 4:9). We call this act of sharing “bearing witness,” and it isn’t about being pushy.
Witnesses simply share their experience. This idea is simple, but it carries a lot of responsibility (Exodus 20:16; Deuteronomy 19:18-20).
YaHUaH calls a group of people, Israel, to be witnesses of His character and actions to the nations (Exodus 19:4-6; Isaiah 43:10-12). And even though they continually fail at their role, He does not give up this partnership with them. Instead, He appoints chief witnesses to the people – Moses, the prophets, and ultimately YaHUsha – to open their eyes again to who Elohim is (Romans 3:21; John 1:7).
When YaHUsha’s companions witnessed His death and resurrection, their eyes were opened. They were transformed into the witnesses Elohim had always intended, and they went out to bear witness to the nations about what they had seen (Luke 24:44-48; Acts 1:8).
Today, when we experience the love and rescue of YaHUsha, we can join in this simple yet weighty task of representing him to the world by sharing what we have experienced.
In this video of The Bible Project, they explore how this word contributes to the overarching story of the Bible.
